GATECREEPER return with their highly anticipated new album Deserted. The new album, a furious mix of snarling guitars and driving, rhythmic pummeling takes death metal from its 80's Floridian roots and 90's Swedish expansion straight into the here and now. In fact, the vanguard of death metal in 2019 can be found under Arizona’s searing sun. That’s where GATECREEPER members-Chase Mason, guitarist Eric Wagner, bassist Sean Mears, drummer Matt Arrebollo and guitarist Nate Garrett-make their homes. Of course, the band nodded to their scorching home state with the title of their 2016 full-length debut, Sonoran Depravation. The theme continues on Deserted, which boasts songs like “Sweltering Madness,” “Boiled Over” and the double-meaning title track. You can hear the results on “From The Ashes,” a crushing cut primed for the European festival circuit. Over on side two, “Boiled Over” fuses classic BOLT THROWER with the pulverizing power grooves of sludge titans CROWBAR. Album closer “Absence Of Light” upholds GATECREEPER's tradition of finishing their records with a deathly doom dirge. Deserted was recorded at Homewrecker Studios in Tucson, where GATECREEPER co-produced the album with engineer Ryan Bram. CONVERGE guitarist Kurt Ballou handled the mix at Godcity in Salem, MA, and Brad Boatright mastered the album at Audiosiege in Portland, OR. Deserted’s hallucinatory cover art was created by Brad Moore (TOMB MOLD, MORPHEUS DESCENDS, and more.)
The autistic kid from that Netflix show made it. Such a shame this guy didn’t. Legend has it, he’s still wandering around in the desert, eating road kill and drinking water meant for Latino immigrants.
I love that chase actually has a mic in the video. I hate it when bands do performance type videos but they don’t have microphones. Sick song dudes. Hits mega hard towards the end.
Living in Norway this is eerie close to the swedish early 90s sound,and that is positive if you ask me! Thanx Gatecreeper for the sounds,you will have a copy of this also in my collection!¥
Former Seirra Vista resident. This is my favorite song of 2023. Saw you guys on Headbangers Boat twice and absolutely loved the show you put on. How did you crazy ass Arizonans create exactly the riffage we needed!?
This direction theyre going in is just perfect, not repeating the same album twice but its still heavy death metal. Imo Obituary, Bolt Thrower and Entombed are the obvious influences🤘🤘
Wandering through chaos Scarred from nightmares Pushing past the things I've known Liberated Accelerating forward Shedding weight that brings us down Rising slowly from the ashes See the light Walk through the flames Overcoming fear kneeled before me Breaking free from limitations Bent but never broke We stand undefeated Seal your fate Walk through the flames Sweet release Stronger than ever Celebration of victory'
I basically came here to make this exact comment. I was listening to the stream earlier today, and the thought going through my head the entire time was, “holy shit, that tone is perfect for death metal” Maybe the best I’ve ever heard.
@@myquest666420 it's the HM2 man, listen to Implore if you like that tone, this band is insane (and they know how to make you fucking groove in the pit)
I will be at Psycho Las Vegas August 2022. See you there, Gatecreeper. Already ordered my long sleeve Gatecreeper Psycho Las Vegas shirt along with Emperor long sleeve and Carcass short sleeve Las Vegas 2022 shirts. With Mercyful Fate. 🤘🎸😈🇺🇸
This song stood in my recommendation, after watching first the Breaking Bad film trailer, I watched this and after that day I m totally hooked to the song. Looking forward to hear more ...
I remember seeing them open with Necrot and Cannibal Corpse 🤘 not really even hearing of them before that but ever since that show I've always been into them. Hail GateCreeper🤙🤘
This video is far too light and positive for the kind of music they play. I fucking love them by the way! This voice is just one of the most intense and brutal i ever heard in this genre.

oke
AWESOME BAND AND SONG )))))
Sounds like every other incantation worship band
@@vikingraven4156 Only this one is extra clean and poppy
Amazing Band...🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Gatecreeper showing all these modern bands that you don't have to play fast to be supremely heavy.
Exactly, ala Obituary, Death , that slow plodding heaviness is the best mixed in with some frantic speed runs
Archspire: *confused screaming*
@@Herpusderpus Lol Archspire fucking rips though.
@@rinozisa9396 They do, I just like to pick on them haha
This band is like the perfect blend of Sweden and Florida.
They are americns tho boss
@@AM-jz1wb I am aware. They're from Arizona. I'm taking about their "sound"
@@shahfacekillah shout out Arizona, it’s cool to have some representation in the metal scene. These dudes are dope.
Great definition... Stay True...
Spot on!
I recognize where they're filming this, right between Phoenix and Tucson.
that melody in the outro (3:12) came unexpected but felt like a drop of tap water in a dry 3am throat
I hope the old man gets to the place where the band is playing, so they could give him some beer and other metal stuff :D
Axel Cáceres me too!
Best of luck to that man.
The autistic kid from that Netflix show made it.
Such a shame this guy didn’t.
Legend has it, he’s still wandering around in the desert, eating road kill and drinking water meant for Latino immigrants.
Lol he's not a old man wtf you drinking..old is like 80
That awesome bastard is only 28. He just parties like a jackyl.
I love that chase actually has a mic in the video. I hate it when bands do performance type videos but they don’t have microphones.
Sick song dudes. Hits mega hard towards the end.
Yeah. No Mic = cringe fest
Yeah that last minute fuckin CRUSHED
BIG agree. It just looks akward without
unless its chance from skeletonwitch
Living in Norway this is eerie close to the swedish early 90s sound,and that is positive if you ask me! Thanx Gatecreeper for the sounds,you will have a copy of this also in my collection!¥
I think the second album is more "Swedish" than the first, which seemed more Obituary or Autopsy influenced.
Best song off the album imo. Love the harmonized riff
unfortunately it is the best song, rest falls flat
This is like a modern version of Bolt Thrower I fucking love It!!
I'll say frozen soul more towards bolt thrower more than anything tbh
HM-2 pedal? That old school Swedish death metal sound is to die for.
@Dale Griffim all excellent bands \m/
Technically it's the Lone Wolff Left Hand Wrath Deluxe, but it's the best HM-2 clone on the market.
@@snazzyrobots Thanks for telling me, I definitely want to get one in the future. \m/
@Dale Griffim well i certainly think i can lmao
@@putridabomination same here! have an original MIJ HM-2 but the LHW sounds so good!
Between djent, overproduction and ultra compressed tunes, this is "refreshing"... in an oldschool way.
😂 sign of the times
True fucking that.
then you should like the band Wilt and Scalpture from germany
same style, same guitar tone!
Basskacu and metalcore
These guys definitely listed to Entombed ...
It's criminal how heavy 2:16 is
Former Seirra Vista resident. This is my favorite song of 2023. Saw you guys on Headbangers Boat twice and absolutely loved the show you put on. How did you crazy ass Arizonans create exactly the riffage we needed!?
Best new metal track I've heard this year
This direction theyre going in is just perfect, not repeating the same album twice but its still heavy death metal. Imo Obituary, Bolt Thrower and Entombed are the obvious influences🤘🤘
Well, it IS death metal, so it would make sense they are influenced by some of the biggest death metal bands out there
So good to hear straight death metal in 2019. Make death metal great again.
Oh don't worry death metal hasn't and isn't going anywhere. Extreme metal will remain
yeah only its not really STRAIGHT death metal, you should check out some of the other releases of this year. Fetid, Tomb mold and Blood Incantation
@@austinharris8709 Tomb Mold is so sick
Brilliant song ! It's on my adhd repeat list! Tour NZ please guys!
Wandering through chaos
Scarred from nightmares
Pushing past the things I've known
Liberated
Accelerating forward
Shedding weight that brings us down
Rising slowly from the ashes
See the light
Walk through the flames
Overcoming fear kneeled before me
Breaking free from limitations
Bent but never broke
We stand undefeated
Seal your fate
Walk through the flames
Sweet release
Stronger than ever
Celebration of victory'
Fuck... Amazing song and lyrics... True Extreme Metal 4ever...
Im more psyched for the new Gatecreeper than Tool fans were for the new Tool
Tool album is a boring disappointment.
metalheadblues Tool is a boring disappointment
They did deliver a magnificent EP this year. Can't get over the last song.
this guitar tone is so fucking good, reminds me of good ol' Swedish Death Metal
just amazing
Especially Entombed .. at least I what I hear.. \m/
@@adrathemetaloutlaw754 that was exactly what I was thinking about

@@myquest666420 it's the HM2 man, listen to Implore if you like that tone, this band is insane (and they know how to make you fucking groove in the pit)
what brand is that GIBSON RD STANDARD shaped guitar? I need it
Gatecreeper never fails at bringing happiness to my life
Can't wait to see em live in February!
Fantastic band, can't wait to buy the new album
1:59-2:19 I felt the soul of Obituary's classic Cause of Death 💀 love it ! Keeping the death metal torch burning strong
Guitar tone is perfect and vocals have gotten a lot better since previous productions
These ol' boys have gone n' stole me heart! 🤘🤘
This song is amazing. Really excellent. I missed this type of guitar play since many years back and vocalist is so true . Great respect
Sounds very creative and original.
This will be the best album of the year! GATECREEPER is the future of DEATH METAL! Bringing old school back like never before!
Tomb mold just released a Fuckin killer old school dm a few months ago!
Tomb Mold, Outre Tombe, Gatecreeper, Ritual Necromancy, Cerebral Rot, there's so much good Death Metal r'now⚔️☠️⚔️
Can't forget that new Devourment though. I blast that on the daily.
Don't forget Blood Incantation
@@diego5434 dont forget blood incantation
This is exactly what the extreme metal world needs. One of my favorites killing it!
Seeing these guys on Saturday with Amon Amarth! Hell yeah!
3:12 - end. New sound for Gatecreeper. Love it.
Yeah love some of the doomy elements they've sprinkled in this album. The track "Absence of Light" is heavy with it.
Is it just me or did Gatecreeper get fucking amazing with their outros on this album so far!?
Can't wait to see you in Albuquerque!
Damn this is the best year for metal in a long time \m/
Oh yes indeed
This is actually really really good . 👌🏼
Please come to Milwaukee!!!!!🤘🏻😝🤘🏻
Shout out Gatecreeper, awesome to have a death metal band repping Arizona and crushin it.
Saw them open for Dying Fetus. Super cool guys. Great music.
Saw them on that tour also and got to chat with the Bassist at their merch table. Cool dude and great band.
Between power trip and gatecreeper the mustache power is evident....it may even be a super power!
Reminds of Grave. Excellent.
Album of the year.
Nice Clandestine sound
Amazing song and video!!! 🤘🤘
I struggle with the vocals, but god damn that’s some awesome music.
Got that dirty sound and groove that just gets the endorphins flowing.
old school with a swedish sound ? fuck yeah!
New album is gonna fkn bunkers🤘🔥
One of my favorite songs of 2019
Mine also.
So Awesome !

I will be at Psycho Las Vegas August 2022. See you there, Gatecreeper. Already ordered my long sleeve Gatecreeper Psycho Las Vegas shirt along with Emperor long sleeve and Carcass short sleeve Las Vegas 2022 shirts. With Mercyful Fate.
🤘🎸😈🇺🇸
That BOSS HM2 Gothenburg Swedish Death Metal sound...
John Cornnell Stockholm**
That end riff really gets the head banging
Instant Classic. Duh. Use your ears and soul if ya got one
Paradise lost mixed with septic flesh. Death riffs with slayer off tones. Brilliant.
This song stood in my recommendation, after watching first the Breaking Bad film trailer, I watched this and after that day I m totally hooked to the song. Looking forward to hear more ...
I remember seeing them open with Necrot and Cannibal Corpse 🤘 not really even hearing of them before that but ever since that show I've always been into them. Hail GateCreeper🤙🤘
absolute banger
Count me in as a new fan this is very impressive 💯
Yeah these guys slay. Listen to their last album "Sonoran Depravation" and this new album. Enjoyable to see live too as you can probably imagine.
Man I can’t wait for concerts again
These dudes live shred soo hard!
metal for the metalhead who likes every single metal band ever.
mikey v are you saying it’s generic?
Hometown heroes! Keeping the Sonoran Desert brutal.
3:12 it turned into an Amon amarth song lol
Yami Bakura Yeah I was expacting a warship with Vinking in the clip during that riff haha
🙈🙈🙈🙈🤘🤘🤘🤘
More like Consumed by Darkness - God Macabre, but okay.
Entombed-Dismember-Obituary. I Love it!!! 44 year old metal geezer
You boys got some great grooves love it \m/
This is fucking great. I love the old school death blast. Fucking smashes my face in. I'm hooked. Can't wait for the album.
The magic of True Death Metal
Cool music!
Fuckk when the squeal rings out at 2:00 and then they hit you with that phat riff at 2:15 that shit is too satisfying
Damn, this rips. Just straight up death metal
Just when I didn’t think this band could get any better they go an prove me wrong,I’m super fuckin stoked for this album
Love the vocals 🤘
woah I didn't know Binging with Babish played bass in Gatecreeper

Nice vocals
Might be from a different state but, I also call the desert “home” 🤘🏽🤘🏽
Thought this was in southern NV till I saw the Saguaro

Reminds me of Dismember a bit.
Vocals are like dismember. Music like entombed.
Awesome reminds me of old Skool Entombed
Siiiick! Fucken badass... can’t wait for the new album to drop 💥💥💥💥
This video is far too light and positive for the kind of music they play. I fucking love them by the way! This voice is just one of the most intense and brutal i ever heard in this genre.
Arizona? Nevada? ok , thanks to the description ! it's in Arizona!
Amazing!!!!!
love it
Whoa!
the sound like old skool swedish death metal
Killer rifffffff 🤘
Reminds me of the time when Six Feet Under make the video from the song Victim of The Paranoid, Great video also!. Cheers.
